An Anxious Heart Sighs





full moon… drifting clouds…
and looking to the heavens…
an anxious heart sighs

to want.


sometimes...
we want more
  than there is to be had.
sometimes we have more
        than we want.
 sometimes we do not know
      what we want...
       what we have.
sometimes we want
     what we don't have
     not realizing
        we have what we want.
although
to have is not...
   to want.

agree



wishes...
one for this
another for that
swimming together in a cosmic vat
an amalgamation of desire and hope
woven together like a fabric or rope
who wears the designs of the wishes we weave?
is it only the few that choose to believe?
is there power in the wish of the one with more zeal?
or does a wish have its own life and its own will?
i may not be certain, but i'm starting to see
a wish has more hope
when we choose to agree

once was fire

windswept  emotions
    augment every day
a chromatic semitone
   carries me away
inflections of uncertainty
   color my beliefs
these faceless reservations
     afford me no relief
evocative aspirations
    submerged in my desire
melancholy cinders
  remain where once was fire
